Sanyo ICC-800
Its design was almost identical to ICC-82D, and the operation is very similar to the portable cassette players: the window in front of the display operates the same way as a cassette deck. Several Hitachi and Toshiba ICs were used in the machine, the display consists of Sanyo’s Eightron gas discharge tubes similar to american Burroughs’ Panaplex style displays but digits were separated to single tubes. The ICC-800’s operation was very similar to its contemporary models, so it has only fixed point modes in the registers too, so calculation with very small and large numbers can results very inaccurate answers. The constant register can be switched on or off during calculations. It is important to note, the leading zeroes were suppressed because of decreasing power consumption.
